Just short of donning scuba gear or putting on camo and sitting real still for hours, canoeing might just be one of the best ways to get really intimate with the great outdoors. In this short teaser, outdoors producer Clint Pollock and you canoe through the largest intact old growth flood plain forest; Congaree National Park’s Cedar Creek, just twenty minutes from Columbia, SC.
From a canoe, one gets face to face and within a hand’s reach of wildlife, cypress trees, primeval forests and the teeming waters of the protected old growth flood plain forest. Paddle alongside Clint as the sun dappled leaves flutter light through the tall canopy of the ancient giants.
Without getting wet, there is no better way to see Congaree.
Peer 750 feet down into an ancient volcanic crater — Death Valley’s deepest. Watch Clint huff and puff as he climbs out. Then join Clint, Mike, and Gary at Death Valley’s mysterious Race Track where rocks move themselves.
The post production crew gets another chance to lambaste the boss by posting these Clint-isms and vocal typos after editing a Craters of the Moon National Monument and Preserve video. Once again, the Adventure-Crew takes themselves less than serious while in the field.
The National Park Service calls this park “weird” and you’ll see why: join Adventure-Crew as we trek through this strange ocean of lava flows with fantastic islands of odd volcanic cinder cones and eerie lava tubes.
Take a break from Death Valley’s searing heat with Team Adventure-Crew as we trek from desert floor to a life-saving oasis. Mike shares his “been there” tip on how to reach a remarkable vista overlooking the falls, then reveals where to find the coldest beer for 60 miles.
